Services
Built-Up Roof Systems
Our built-up roofing systems use layered asphalt and gravel for durable, weather-resistant commercial roofs. Redundant waterproofing membranes ensure longevity in high-traffic areas. Ideal for flat or low-slope buildings requiring proven protection against Chicago's climate extremes.
EPDM Roof Systems
EPDM synthetic rubber roofs offer superior durability and UV resistance for commercial properties. Our installations feature seamless membranes that withstand temperature fluctuations. Energy-efficient options reduce cooling costs while maintaining structural integrity.
Green Roof Systems
Sustainable green roofing solutions combine vegetation layers with advanced waterproofing. These systems mitigate urban heat islands, improve insulation, and comply with Chicago's environmental regulations. Our designs balance ecological benefits with practical maintenance requirements.
Metal Roof Systems
Durable metal roofing installations featuring energy-efficient coatings and corrosion-resistant materials. Available in standing seam or corrugated profiles, these roofs provide 40+ year lifespans while reducing energy consumption through solar reflectance.
Roof Maintenance Programs
A-1 Extends maintenance contracts include bi-annual inspections and priority repair service. Our RoofTop Control software tracks deficiencies digitally, ensuring warranty compliance through manufacturer-certified maintenance procedures for all roofing types.
